Some time ago I encountered the term "peanut butter", meaning bad performance due to a pervasive problem such as a bad choice of data structure or a bad abstraction smeared across much of the codebase.
I'm trying to find a good citation or etymology for the term. Does anyone who knows what I'm on about have a good pointer? Tony. -- f.anthony.n.finch <[email protected]> http://dotat.at/ Shannon, Rockall: West, backing south, 5 to 7, occasionally gale 8 later, perhaps severe gale 9 later in Rockall. Rough or very rough, becoming high in west later. Showers, rain later. Moderate or good, occasionally poor.
